Guilds

Guilds are an integral part of MMORPG. An MMORPG is based on its community, and guilds are the most permanent way for players to band together. Through guilds, players can chat with each other, war with other guilds, and siege.

What is a Guild?

Many of you , as you play, come to wonder what these small groups, or teams, are that call themselves guilds.

A Guild is:

1. An organization of persons with related interests, goals, etc., esp. one formed for mutual aid or protection.

2. Any of various associations, as of merchants or artisans, organized to maintain standards and to protect the interests of its members, and that sometimes constituted a local governing body.

Every Guild is a family, a team, a governing body. There is the Master/Leader, Kingpins, Captains, Supporters, and Rookies. They all guard each other and work together to create relationships and as a small active community; they play together, level, shop, and PvP together. Each Guild is almost like a Tribe, they compete against other Guilds and thrive to be the best Guild in their Cluster.

Many Guilds do not make a community solely on playing the game competitively, many are based on similar interests or the hunger for a community of friends to have fun with.

Each Guild has the chance to pick cloaks, an emblem, and can participate on Guild Events. However, in order to participate in any of these you must first level your Guild to the requirements each entail.

Making a Guild

Before you create a Guild you must be the required level 40, and must take time to think of a Guild name.

First, gather what you need:

• 500 million penya
• Lead of a party with 2 other players that are eligible to enter a guild (they will be your first members) To be eligible a person must not have been in a guild in the past 2 hours.

Second, speak to Helena (Saint Morning, Bank NPC).

• She will ask for the 500 million penya first.
• After handing in the 500 million penya, she will ask you to lead a 3 player party.
• After speaking to her again, click on "Create a Guild", and your guild will be created.

Note that for any future guilds you make, you will not have to undergo this quest. You can create a guild directly by being the leader of a 3-player party where everyone is eligible to join a guild, and talking to Helena.

Managing a Guild

After creating your guild, you will want to learn to manage it. The options are all found on the guild window, which you can access via the "g" hotkey or by going through your Start menu.

The Information tab is where you can make your major guild changes. "Name" button - change the name of your guild (only viable once) "Notice" button - change your notice whenever you want (note that there is a very low character limit to the notice) "Logo" button - choose a logo for your guild once it reaches level 4 "Dismiss" button - disband the guild.

The Member tab is where you can manage the ranking of your members, as well other features. As leader, once you right click on a member's name, various options are available. While members with the right permissions (explained in the next tab) will be able to use some of these options on other members, some options are only available to the leader. "Promote Member/Demote Member" - To change the ranking of a member between (in order of tier) Rookie, Supporter, Captain, and Kingpin. Members with ranking permissions can use this option on other members beneath their rank and class. "Class Up/Class Down" - To differentiate ranking inside each rank, these options allows you to increase or decrease the number of icons beside their name (or their class) between 1 and 3. Members with ranking permissions can use this option on other members beneath their rank and class. "Create Nickname" - At level 10 of the guild, the leader is able to give nicknames to specific members with this option. There is a strict character limit. "Leave Guild" - A leader can kick members with this option, and this option is how members can leave the guild themselves.	File:Guild2.JPG
The Title tab is where you can change the permissions of each rank as well as give a salary to people of certain rank. Method of change is pretty self-explanatory, check mark the box under the rank you want to give the permission to, next to the permission you want to give. De-check mark for permissions you want to remove. Title - Allows the member group to change the classification of members under their rank. Rank - Allows the member group to change the class of members under their rank. Join - Allows the member group to invite unguilded members to the guild. Penya - Allows the member group to remove penya from the guildwarehouse. Items - Allows the member group to remove items from the guildwarehouse. Pay - Use this button to set the salary of the member group. The salary is paid every 24 hours.	File:Guild3.JPG
The Guild War tab is where you can declare war on other guilds, as well as proclaim peace and surrender. This tab is also where you are able to view your total losses and wins. Guild War - Input the name of the guild you wish to declare war on after pressing this button. Peace - Sends a request for a truce to the opposing guild's leader. Give Up - Automatically ends the guild war with a loss of your side.	File:Guild4.JPG

To store and/or remove items - Just drag and drop, like you would do in your bank. Note that everyone can store items in the warehouse, but only members with permission can remove items. To store and/or remove penya - Click the support button, and enter in the amount of penya you wish to place in the warehouse in the Penya field of the popup window. Removal of penya is the same as that for your bank. To donate quest items - Click the support button, then check mark "Trophy". Please note that this option automatically takes all of the quest items in your inventory, so if you have any that you don't want to donate, you might want to place them elsewhere first. Additionally, quest items are automatically taken by the system and you cannot remove them after you donate. The higher the level of the quest item, the higher the contribution amount. Cloak - This button allows the guild leader to generate cloaks in the guild warehouse if a logo is chosen. (see above) Note that since guild cloaks cannot be traded, the member must be allowed access to remove items from the warehouse in order to retrieve their own cloak.
